It is officially Capricorn season. Beginning on Dec. 21 and ending on Jan. 20, the season is defined by nurturing, maternal, adept in decision-making and stable energy. Capricorns are characterized as being all work and no play. While this Capricorn stereotype isn’t entirely false, there are other things that are important to know about the Capricorns to get close to them.

Capricorns are Earth signs, along with Taurus and Virgo. They tend to like timeless things and focus on high-achieving energy. As cardinal signs, they’re also very good leaders and know how to get stuff done. Due to this characteristic, approaching a Capricorn can be more than a little intimidating. This is a group of people who do not like to waste time or energy. A big part of the reason why they take some skill to step to is because they ooze confidence and power.

Here’s how to attract a Capricorn and become a power couple.

Be Hardworking

Capricorns embody growth. If you desire to catch the attention of a Capricorn, then you need to be hardworking and strive to elevate. Keep drama away from a Capricorn and surround them with good, grown vibes. There is nothing sexier than a grounded and capable partner for Capricorn lovers.

Authentic Vibes + Fearless Ambition = Winning Energy

Capricorns are attracted to your wins and how you show up for yourself. Saturn rules Capricorn, which means that security, discipline and thriving in hard work matters come naturally. Lazy and ungrounded individuals who don’t honor their word irk Capricorn to the core. This zodiac sign is all for authenticity, fearless ambition and loyalty. The way to win over a Capricorn is to show that you own your strong suits unapologetically.

Work on Your Emotional Intelligence and Practical Thinking

Emotionally intelligent Capricorns want a partner who knows emotional maturity. At the same time, this is a sign that listens to the heart and the rational mind. They will fall for someone who can balance both of these skills with ease.

It’s OK to Be Selective

Your Capricorn crush is more than a little selective, and they’re proud of that. A Capricorn’s love life is directed by who has the privilege of entering their inner life. As one of the least messy signs in the zodiac, Capricorns are all about order and boundaries. They want romantic and platonic friendships to be hand-picked and aligned with their value systems and lifestyle.

Capricorns Love a Little Privacy

Capricorns have a hidden wild side. Capturing Capricorn’s heart depends on seeing them as well-rounded beings who are capable of some outrageous things when privacy is guaranteed. Remember that Capricorns aren’t afraid of their desires, they get what they want. When in safe and private settings, you’ll see Capricorn’s less structured side, as they willingly unwind for the ones they love. You’ll truly know if a Capricorn wants you when they start to reveal their inner desires, fun past lives and exciting dreams.
